Music: Alf/Anders/At the gates
Lyrics: Alf/Tomas
Catch the rainbow if you can
It will always be ahead of you
Years passing swifter than you ever thought
Today will soon be behind you
And the future remains out of reach [, out of reach]
Hunting the sun, setting at the horizon
When shadows threat to swallow your weak soul
The key of light, the solution of all
I saw it clearly behind the veil of reality
And as I dreamed of lilies white
In the shade of a birch
They withered in the frost of awakening
Fiery the angels fell from the spires of my fortress of youth
Silent explosions in my universe of pain [, universe of pain, pain]
Appease my hunger, defeat my solitude
And let me follow where daydreams go,
When ambitions fail
[Years passing swifter than you ever thought
Today will soon be behind you
And the future remains out of reach, out of reach]
Watch the sky, there is the proof of your transcience,
The stars that saw the birth of our ancestors
Shall watch our descendants last steps on earth
So, unnoticed we will pass away,
Like a flickering in the perpetual chaos
The timebird rose from it's nest of bones
And thrust it's beak into my eye
With the beat of charging wings
My transcience was confirmed
[Appease my hunger, defeat my solitude
And let me follow where daydreams go,
When ambitions fail]
Time perhaps for a salutary sleep
I still long for that silent land of dreams,
Where the flames expire, where the spark fades
And hunger is born again
[The timebird rose from it's nest of bones
And thrust it's beak into my eye
With the beat of charging wings
My transcience was confirmed]
